1917 US Patriotic Poster Stamp So Little Is Asked Of You. Buy More W.S.S. Now Unused Hinge Mark 90% Original Gum Smudges On FaceThis Poster Stamp Was Issued In The United States During World War I As Part Of The Government’s Campaign To Promote The Purchase Of War Savings Stamps (W.S.S.), A Program Launched In 1917 To Encourage Citizens To Financially Support The War Effort Through Small Denomination Bond Purchases. The Design Features A Resting American Soldier Lying In Uniform On A Battlefield, Gazing Upward In Fatigue Or Reflection, With The Emotional Appeal Emphasized By The Slogan: “So Little Is Asked Of You. Buy More W.S.S. Now.” The Soldier’s Pose And The Somber Colors Of Red, Blue, And White Reinforce A Patriotic Message That Civilians At Home Can Support The Cause With Minimal Sacrifice Compared To What Soldiers Endure. War Savings Stamps Were Widely Promoted Through Schools, Posters, And Patriotic Ephemera Like This Label, Which Was Likely Affixed To Envelopes, Window Displays, Or Personal Belongings To Signal Loyalty And Encourage Broader Participation In The Program. The Stamp Shows Moderate Wear With Surface Abrasion Present In The Lower Right Field. Visible Text (Rewritten In Sentence Form): So Little Is Asked Of You. Buy More W.S.S. Now.

Most Of The Poster Stamps And Cinderellas I Offer Are Truly Old Historic Treasures? Many Are Close To 100 Years Old Or More. Because Of Their Age, You Might Notice A Few Minor Imperfections Here And There. They're Full Of History And Character, But They Most Definitely Aren't Post Office Fresh. That's Especially True For Cinderella And Poster Stamps, So Please Take A Good Look At The Scans Because They're An Important Part Of The Description. Also, Please Note That The Backs Of Poster Stamps Are Typically Considered Much Less Important Than The Fronts, And Descriptions Can Be A Bit Subjective. If The Condition Of The Back Is Important To You, Just Reach Out. I Am Happy To Provide More Details Or Additional Scans.I Do My Best To Describe Everything Honestly And Accurately, And To The Best Of My Ability, I Guarantee That All Items Are Genuine (Unless Otherwise Noted).
